D&G Stephenville

Ok, so Im getting better here but still have things to work on

this was my first big barrel race

Keep on Keepin on

so I finally got a Gazelle .. yesterday I started out with 10 mins and today Ive done 2 sessions of 10 mins each. I am hoping that I have as much success with this as I have heard others have. And NOOO I will not be posting photos of me on it

Starting today

Someone please hold me accountable to this! I need all the help I can get.

Starting today, I will be working out at least every weekday. I have GOT to do something to kick start the diet. Actually have been dieting some for the last 2 weeks and am down 5 lbs but it seems Im stuck and wont lose anymore. So, Im going to start my workout videos back up today and hope to continue them everyday and at least ride several days a week

Bah humbug!

Ok, so my readers have vanished. But thats okay. This weekend has been oh so un-eventful! We have not done 1 exciting thing. Okay, so I take that back. Yesterday (saturday) we went to meet Marks sister for lunch. We met at ON The Border (blech) Had a nice visit then decided to drive on over to JC Penney to look at their stuff. So me, Mark and Tanner load up in my Jeep and then Rilee and Keli went in her truck. We have to go down the northbound access road, cross over I-35 and back up the south bound side access road to get into the JCP parking lot. We got over there and the clouds looked very ominous. We sat there a minute just staring the in sky at how weird the clouds were moving. We finally get out and run to the front because it had started to rain a tad. As we get in JCP the workers are yelling at us to get in the back of the store because we are under a Tornado WARNING. Uhm, WHAT?? Im not going anywhere until we get Rilee and Keli in. They understood that we were waiting for them before we went back to the shoe dept (where people were taking cover) They finally arrive, Keli basically does a drive by and Mark grabs Rilee and runs back to the store. Keli parks and runs inside to be with us. As soon as she gets in, they made the announcement on the intercom that we could now resume with our shopping. SIGH. All that excitement for nothing. Oh well .. at least we were all safe and out of harms way.

Pete

Pete is a horse that was originally bought for me. But I later found Caddie and gave Pete to Mark. We've put some time into him and although we dont have enough time .. Pete is starting to come along nice for him. They were trying to see if Pete would bump a horse ... then Buck (Marks bro in law) started hollerin to see if it would bother him. If you havent figured it out yet, Pete is a pick up horse in the making

This and that ..

Im posting some random stuff on here. Theres no telling what Ill put. I know Im posting a pic of my bay yearling and some vids of Jillian Woodward

Friends

I have to say that this past weekend has been one of my most favorite of all. I got to spend some good quality time with some good quality friends. I am so glad that I got to hang out with my 3 favorite girls .. Rilee, Crazy-in-love Jenn and Silly Jilly. Those 2 girls are so awesome with Rilee. Really makes me proud to call them my friends. They both had some good runs this weekend and I wont post the videos that I do have until I get the "go ahead" from them.

but thanks to ALL my friends that were there to help me with the barrel race saturday. I couldnt have done it without all of your support!

Also, thanks to my wonderful husband MARK that was there for the entire duration on saturday and part of it on sunday. I feel really blessed to have the support that I do and I love him dearly for it.

Also .. I just love me some Mrs Vickie and Mr Jack and Mrs Becky .. they have been my rock throughout my barrel races lately and I truly believe they help me in my progress with my horse. I love them dearly.

Back then and now

Okay .. going to post my first run and my run from yesterday from the BRAT Attack
